Huge result

Props to Gil when we went to 10, he was superb.

Tell you what, Emerson and Davies may not be the best in the world but give it their all. Great shift from those two.

Both were really good today for me…even ekoku said same same

How did we win that?! I only saw the first half. Must have been a massive effort!

 

[felmani26]

Another bonkers game but equally another valuable 3 points gained despite the ongoing uphill battle against injuries.

Squad tested to the max right now and new recruits are a must and needed ASAP.

But 1 point behind City and Arsenal, 3 off top - I think we have done remarkably well to be where we are right now.

Great win. Hojbjerg and Gil were excellent off the bench. Lo Celso man of the match.

 

[kent brockman]

Lo Celso made us tick. Cant wait to see him, Bents and Maddison together.

 

[mark87]

If no injuries to VDV and Maddison then I'm confident we'd be top right now.

 

[DenverSpur]

A better second half. We passed the ball much better. In the first half sloppy passing at the back helped Bournemouth create a lot of chances and the inability of the front 3 to hold the ball up made us impotent in attack.
A good win against a very in form team.
Over the 90+ minutes I thought Udogie was our most consistent player - he made 3 vital interceptions in the first half.
Although I still think he’s a bit lightweight Johnson put in a couple of great first time crosses in, the second of which gave Richarlison his goal. More of that please.

that's what our great start to the season afforded us. We all knew that we were going to hit serious road blocks, but we just have to keep chugging, this season unlike the last i'd say 6 feels like its truly a marathon not a sprint.

Salah will be gone at Afcon (i think right?) we will lose players, players will continue to get hurt for everyone, this is where we need to be really smart and continue to chip away at this table, you never know, if we get to the end of the season where we finish with like 3 out of 4 matches against top 6, there could be some crazy changes to the top end of the table then.

Lo celso motm

Except the multiple youngsters we regularly start matches with like Udogie, VDV, Sarr, Johnson…

I'd add Kulusevski (23), Skipp (23), Porro (24), Emerson (24) & Solomon (24) to that list.

He's also choosing to regualrly use Veliz (20) as a sub, but not Phillips. Age doesn't seem to be the reason.

The average age of our starting XI (best team, not today's team) is 24.8, and I would argue that only Son has peaked, so it's not like our manager is relying on experience. Our bench is generally pretty young too, with Davies (30), Dier (29) & Hojbjerg (28) often the only subs who aren't in their late teens / early 20s.

I am confident we would be 6 points clear

To go from playing some really poor, backs to the wall football, to fighting it back and winning pretty comfortably, especially with lots of players considered “deadwood”, is credit to Ange. He’s obviously achieved some huge buy-in with the entire team.

 

[spur_souljah]

Lo celso was incredible in that second half, such a classy smart player when he gets going.

 

[SE Spurs]

Fantastic result, done on fumes.
Great effort, especially with em dropping like flies. Just need us to hang in around that top 4 until we get these players back.

3pts! Goons losing! COYS!!

 

[Pistols At Dawn]

Ange Coach of the First Half of the Season without question

 

[Locotoro]

I'm going to keep saying it, probably till he retires but we should have bought Scott.

I think he's definitely in the right place for his development. He's showed that he can step up to this level
